The Dallas Cowboys had a disappointing 2025 NFL season. The NFC East team had one of the most powerful offenses but also one of the worst defenses in the league.
Defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus only lasted one season. They replaced him with Christian Parker, a highly touted coach on the Philadelphia Eagles. Additionally, they added several players to improve the defense.
Safety Jalen Thompson arrived from the Cardinals on a three-year deal, while Derrion Kendrick joined from the Los Angeles Rams on a one-year deal. They also traded for edge rusher Rashan Gary, putting together a solid group.
More than that, one overlooked signing could be the difference-maker for Dallas in 2026.
